Your version should have out-of-the-box nvidia support. If all else fails, try a resinstall and double check the graphics card it detects. |

| 224546 | 2004-03-28 04:51:00 | new message not all bad lol. No matching precompiled kernel interface.the installer will need to compile a kernel interface. I say go for it and then Unable to find the kernel source tree for the currently running kernel. Is this something I must install as well ?? |

Piet> Basically its having issues finding where your kernel sources are (I think that's what was happening when I had that error). Try: sh NVIDIA-Linux-x86-1.0-5336-pkg2.run --kernel-source-path=/usr/src/linux You'll need to run the following first (as root): cd /usr/src ls -l If you see something like: Supernova nvidia # ls -l /usr/src/ total 5 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Feb 2 09:29 linux -> linux-2.6.3-rc4-gentoo drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 1280 Mar 23 21:10 linux-2.6.1-gentoo drwxr-xr-x 18 root root 752 Feb 24 23:46 linux-2.6.3-rc2-gentoo drwxr-xr-x 19 root root 1248 Feb 25 00:06 linux-2.6.3-rc4-gentoo Obviosly without the -gentoo parts ;-) Basically you want to make sure that it says: linux -> linux-2.*.* If not, then run: ln -s linux-2.*.* linux This will make the symlink (Where * is your kernel version) Then give it a shot. If it doesnt work, then: cat /var/log/nvidia-installer.log and post the output here :-) Hope this helps Chill. |

| 224548 | 2004-04-01 07:06:00 | Xandros has crashed I have changed something and now nothing works lol back in windows now. But it gets worse I sent my copy of xandros to my brother in wellington so he could have a go with it before he buys "fast post" and now it's LOST. Will be back when I get a new copy. Thanx for all your help. I am not put off at all by my problems and will be back with Xandros as soon as I can . Thanx all . |

| 224549 | 2004-04-01 07:28:00 | If you've broken something, the you were "rooting around", which is a big No-no..... Only login as root when you need to. ...Either that, or if its user-specific then simply rm /home/username/.appname folder (eg, Gaim would be rm -rf /home/piet/.gaim). Good to hear you're not put off by a few minor mishaps Cheers Chill. |
